Two tragedies, 43 years apart, have defined the former vice president’s life. Have they also made him a more formidable presidential candidate?
January 25, 2019
”Days after his 7-year-old son was murdered inside the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, the phone rang at Mark Barden’s House. „The vice president,” his sister-in-law whispered. He held the phone up to his ear and heard the voice of Joe Biden”
It is believed that Biden had a life of loss and suffering as he did not meet in US politics, in 1972 his wife and daughter were killed in a car accident and in 2015 one of his two sons managed to survive the car accident, was killed for a rare form of brain cancer. Because of the pain he was forced to induce, he also changed my vision of the police, trying to help people as much as possible. The suffering associated with the tragedies of the loss of their loved ones was a factor of influence that influenced the decision to give up the presidential election in 2016. He became a more relative, authentic and empathic man, as we can find in the article – I chose to talk.
„This tragedy of losing someone, especially a child – if that did not happen to you, as much as you can feel sympathy, you can not start putting yourself in your place if you were not there, quoted is what a declarant Fred Sears, a friend of high school Biden. People who know it better say Biden’s combination of events make it stand out, and at a time of „bullshit” and a president like Donald Trump, Biden’s empathy might be a factor of „X” ‘.
I think Biden was appreciated that he left for the family and suffered this, and that can help him get over everything and continue to do what he proposes.
